Cost of new valve seats?
So people, anyone give me an idea of the cost of getting new valve seats fitted to my 1200 T1 engine?
Person before me must run the poor thing into the ground cos the exhaust guides had 2mm play easy on a few and totally routed the valve seats 
I've got the guides out already and can press them in meself but not the valve seats.
Your bets please

You get overhauled heads much cheaper than that...

He advertises in the VWA magazine...
